AI Looks Too Good In James Bond Trailer With Henry Cavill And Margot Robbie

When it comes to AI (Artificial Intelligence), when does it become too much? In a new fake James Bond trailer starring AI versions of Henry Cavill and Margot Robbie, the viral video looks so realistic you wouldn't have known it was AI. AI Looks Too Good Thanks to AI, it's very easy to fake things these days on the internet. From new songs from popular artists to wild collaborations, AI has created music over and over again that fans love -- even if it isn't from the original artist. This is a very dangerous game for the future of musicians and, now, movies. The entertainment industry is one of the many industries directly affected by the use of AI, which is threatening to take away jobs from real people. A popular YouTube page, KH Studio, is known for pumping out unofficial concept trailers for "upcoming movies" by using AI technology. In a recently uploaded trailer from earlier this month, they created a new 007 film starring Robbie and Cavill, which is titled Bond 26. With over 3.5 million views, the video briefly shows KH Studios' logo in the bottom corner, which lets us know it is not official. The description even says Christopher Nolan would be the director behind the fake film.

We could have much more than anyone else. The problem is that the world is too small... for both of us." In a zoom-in shot of Cavill, the eeriness of AI shows his eyes looking a little wonky, and hit skin looks too perfect, but for those without 20/20 vision, it is possible to overlook these small details. However, when Robbie says, "Hello, James Bond," the synching of her lips is so off that it looks animatronic. The rest of the clips appear to mix in footage from previous Bond films and other films Cavill and Robbie have starred. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gcIv4hGDZeE The trailer is generating so much attention that film sites have released articles debunking its authenticity. Despite the trailer being fake, it seems as though fans very badly want Cavill to be the next Bond star. However, as we previously reported, Aaron-Taylor Johnson was reportedly named Daniel Craig's James Bond successor. Tom Holland and Dwayne Johnson also made it known that they [inlink id="tom-holland-dwayne-johnson-next-james-bond" text="want a shot at being Bond"] as well. But the comments section under the YouTube video was full of fans wanting Cavill as 007. One fan said, "Can someone please start a petition to make Henry the next James Bond? I have nothing against Aaron Taylor but will all know Henry was the best fit for this." Apparently, Cavill himself watched the AI trailer, discussing it in a recent interview. One fan pointed it out: "I'm here after Henry Cavill interview [heart eyes emoji]; he said he watched this video." One hilariously feral fan wrote, "Henry Cavill bloody well owns the role! He is perfect! Powerful sexy and ultra classy. Shaken not stirred needs that man!!!!! Bond on steroids!" Another commented, "Henry has the swag and debonair for 007 period!" Commented another, "Henry is Bond that we never got, but we definitely needed." Cavill's latest role is in the recently released WWII film by Guy Ritchie, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare, starring as a commando. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zvwDen1Wrx8 Other trailers KH Studio has created include Rocky 7, Pirates of the Caribbean 6, The Mummy: Resurrection and Constantine 2 with Keanu Reeves, and an Edward Scissorhands remake with Timothee Chalamet and Zendaya as the stars. These trailers are great for fans who long for the "what ifs" when films are long done, tapping into that need for more. However, if these trailers pass as the real thing going forward, there will be lots of trouble and lawsuits coming.
